Realbotix Corp., a leader in humanoid robotics and embodied AI, announced a partnership with Bloom Procurement Services to launch a pilot program deploying socially assistive robots to combat loneliness and improve wellbeing among elderly residents in Northeast England. Realbotix has been accredited as a supplier in Bloom's marketplace, creating a compliant route to UK public sector contracts. The evidence-based pilot will evaluate resident engagement, cognitive health indicators, staff feedback, and overall impact on loneliness and quality of life. The robots are designed to supplement, not replace, human caregivers. If successful, the partnership could create a scalable pathway for broader adoption of Realbotix's robotic and AI avatar platform across the UK public sector.
